Well for all that I think I'll try the Honda MTF. Heck it only uses 2-3 quarts (don't remember off the top of my head and it's cold outside where my manual is) so it's not like it's gonna be real expensive......
Thansk for the replies guys!

... ThisWILL be different if using a synthetic engine oil whichdoes not have additives designed for the synchro operation, which I believe is the case with specialised synthetic gearbox oil...

There, I fixed it for ya... You're correct that synthetic gearbox oil isn't the same as synthetic engine oil.
